    Pulmonary sarcoidosis brings a lot of troubles, affects the health of the patient's lungs, brings a lot of inconvenience, to pay attention to the small nodules in the lungs, the symptoms of the disease are cough, hemoptysis, dampness, sweating, and the body will gradually lose weight.

    Small nodules in the lungs are one of the lung diseases, and the incidence is very high, and many friends encounter the symptoms of small lung nodules, which will cause serious harm to the patient's lung health. This disease is not like early-stage lung cancer. Many diseases of the lungs form severe nodules, and benign states may appear, such as tuberculosis, fungi, inflammation, subsegmental lung, hemorrhage, etc.

    The small nodules in the lungs are mostly small round, focal, and the shadow of increased density on imaging manifestations, which may be single or multiple, and are generally not accompanied by hilar hypertrophy, atelectasis, and pleural fluid, but isolated pulmonary nodules have no typical symptoms, most of them are single, with obvious boundaries and relatively increased density.

    Medications**, for all patients, drugs control the condition, but not cure the disease. In order to reduce mortality, patients must take medication aggressively. In order to avoid spreading the disease to others, patients must take their medications** early** for the disease.

    In order to reduce the prevalence of patients, it is very necessary to reduce the number of patients with drugs. The medicine should be early, the combination of drugs should be appropriate, the dosage should not be too large, and the condition should be monitored during the medication. The duration of the disease is generally 6-9 months.

    The efficacy of the disease with the drug ** is up to 98%. For patients with severe tuberculosis, the drug method has been unable to achieve satisfactory results. Without surgery**, the disease can quickly worsen.

    After deterioration, the difficulty of ** increases. However, most people with tuberculosis can achieve satisfactory results with drugs** and therefore do not need surgery**. Surgery** is for people whose disease and lung cancer are difficult to identify.

    Pneumonectomy is the most important method of disease. In addition to total lung resection, he can also use alcohol and food ** for this disease, but the indications are different.

    First, vaccination is a very effective means of preventing disease. Our policy is to vaccinate newborns free of charge. This is effective in preventing severe tuberculosis in children, but it still does not completely prevent infection.

    Second, open windows frequently for ventilation. Especially in crowded places such as classrooms and dormitories.

    Pulmonary nodules are usually asymptomatic. Zhang Wenpeng said that most patients are asymptomatic, a few can have non-specific symptoms such as cough and sputum, and some patients can present with symptoms such as blood in sputum, chest pain, and hemoptysis.

    1.Asymptomatic: Most pulmonary nodules are found by chest CT during physical examination, generally without any discomfort, usually the nodule diameter is very small, generally the diameter of the nodule is centimeter, and the possibility of being benign is high.

    2.Non-specific manifestations: Some patients with pulmonary nodules may have non-specific manifestations such as cough and sputum production, which may be related to the enlargement of the nodule and local squeezing of lung tissue.

    3.Blood in sputum, chest pain, hemoptysis: a small number of patients with pulmonary nodules present with blood in sputum, chest pain, and hemoptysis, suggesting that pulmonary nodules may be malignant, and nodule biopsy should be performed to determine the pathological type for further guidance**.

    Pulmonary nodules** may cause damage to the respiratory system if not timely, which is very harmful to physical health; In particular, pulmonary nodules may also be malignant lesions, and if not timely, cancer cells will multiply and metastasize in the body, which will seriously shorten the survival period. Therefore, after discovering the early symptoms of pulmonary nodules, it is particularly important to be timely **, so, what are the early symptoms of pulmonary nodules?

    1. Cough and phlegm.

    In general, when pulmonary nodules are still in the early stages of the disease, the symptoms are not particularly obvious because the lung damage is mild. There may be occasional cough and sputum production, with very little sputum; As the condition worsens, there will be some blood streaks in the sputum.

    2. Fever and chills.

    When pulmonary nodules are co-infected, fever may occur. Because of the increase in body temperature, the body often feels cold, and it is accompanied by muscle aches, fatigue and weakness.

    3. Weakness.

    If benign pulmonary nodules are co-infected, fever symptoms often show signs of general weakness; Malignant lung nodules can also cause cancerous fever, which can also make patients feel weak and listless.

    4. Weight loss.

    When pulmonary nodules appear, they may affect the digestive system, resulting in loss of appetite, nutritional intake, and weight loss. Especially when the pulmonary nodule is a malignant lesion, the internal friction is more serious, and the symptoms of weight loss will be more obvious.

    5. Chest tightness and shortness of breath.

    When there is a wide range of lesions in the lungs, it may be accompanied by symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath, and it is particularly difficult to breathe. In severe cases, symptoms such as dyspnea may occur.

    6. Chest pain.

    There are many pulmonary nodules, and if they are caused by cryptococcal infection, malignant tumors and other diseases, they are often accompanied by chest pain symptoms. If the pulmonary nodule is caused by cryptococcal infection, only simple chest pain will occur; If the lung nodule is caused by a malignant tumor, there will be cough, sputum production, and blood in the sputum when the symptoms of chest pain appear.

    Strictly speaking, pulmonary nodules have no obvious symptoms. Pulmonary nodules are often screened by chest CT. For some people who have no symptoms, when they go for CT physical examination, they can even find that they have already developed lung cancer, and these patients with early lung cancer** have achieved good results.

    Therefore, there are no symptoms in the normal lung nodules, and our normal lungs, that is, the internal organs, are not painful. However, symptoms such as cough may occur. When lung cancer progresses to a severe level, there may be symptoms such as cough, hemoptysis, and chest pain, which are often at an advanced stage of lung cancer.

    Therefore, it is recommended that people over the age of 40 should have a chest CT scan every year. Because the incidence of lung cancer in China is now the first. The mortality rate of lung cancer is more than that of liver cancer, esophageal cancer and colon cancer, which are ranked in the bottom three, four or five combined.

    What is a ground-glass nodule in the lungs.

    Ground-glass nodules in the lungs refer to some nodules in the lungs that are relatively low-density, as if they are ground glass or clouds. This indicates that the nodule has relatively few substantial components. It's like a ball of cotton, a glass ball and an iron ball of the same size, although the volume is the same, but the density is obviously different, and the weight is also different.

    A ground-glass nodule is equivalent to a lump of cotton and is a very low-density lesion. Similar to the ground glass in life, it feels like there is a layer of fog. Ground glass nodules are generally divided into less than five millimeters and more than five millimeters, and some are divided into less than eight millimeters and more than eight millimeters.

    Below eight millimeters is relatively safe, while those above eight millimeters are risky. For ground-glass nodules found for the first time, it is recommended to reduce inflammation before considering surgery. Pulmonary nodules are a general term for lesions in the lungs that are less than three centimeters, so it is not necessary to say that ground-glass nodules are lung cancers.

    There are many reasons why there are small nodules in the lungs. For example, tuberculosis, chronic inflammation, benign and malignant intrapulmonary tumors, etc. First of all, the size and shape of the nodules should be used to preliminarily determine the nature of the nodules.

    Generally less than 5 mm, small nodules with smooth edges. Consider the possibility of chronic inflammation or proliferative disease, and chest CT can be followed up for three to six months. If the change is not significant, no special treatment is required.

    If a small lung nodule is considered to be caused by inflammation, the nodule will disappear after anti-inflammatory**. If the nodule is greater than 1 cm in diameter and has lobulation or burrs, malignancy is more likely. Enhanced CT of the chest and pathological examination of the nodule positioning and biopsy should be completed to determine whether it is malignant, and if it is malignant, surgery should be performed promptly**.

    Pulmonary sarcoidosis is a lump or nodule that often appears on chest x-ray or CT, and the standard for a mass is generally a diameter of more than 4 mm, while a nodule usually refers to a diameter of less than 3 mm.

    Advice: Generally speaking, if the physical examination finds that there is a shadow in the lungs, in order to determine the nature of the nodule, whether it is a benign nodule or a cancerous nodule, a tuberculosis nodule or other nodules, it is best to do chest CT or flexible bronchoscopy for further examination. Nodules are generally not easy to characterize, so it is necessary to comprehensively judge the nature of the lesions in combination with the medical history and conduct regular reexamination.

    If the nodule does not change or becomes smaller or even disappears after a long period of reexamination, it means that the patient has no problem; However, if the re-examination finds that the lesion has become larger, especially in the short term, it means that it is not benign and must be checked in time.
